Publisher's Summary
In 2009 Malala Yousafzai began writing a blog on BBC Urdu about life in the Swat Valley as the Taliban gained control, at times banning girls from attending school. When her identity was discovered, Malala began to appear in both Pakistani and international media, advocating the freedom to pursue education for all.
In October 2012, gunmen boarded Malala's school bus and shot her in the face, a bullet passing through her head and into her shoulder. Remarkably, Malala survived the shooting. At a very young age, Malala Yousafzai has become a worldwide symbol of courage and hope. Her shooting has sparked a wave of solidarity across Pakistan, not to mention globally, for the right to education, freedom from terror and female emancipation.
I Am Malala, the memoir of Malala Yousafzai, will shed insight into the lives of those children who cannot attend school, will tell the inspiring story of a schoolgirl faced the Taliban with courage and bravery. Read by Archie Panjabi, with a prologue read by Malala Yousafzai.

I loved it.
Great book, well written, informative but easy to read. The narration was great also and really interesting to find out more about her life in Pakistan and the context of the political situation there.

Loved it, eye-opening, inspiring
Eye-opening and inspiring story, a great introduction to a situation and a country I know very little about. A young girl's experience of a country at war with itself and her struggle for the right to education. Peppered with anecdotes of her everyday teenage life which make you realise she is not much different from yourself.

Absolutely amazing!
I was so moved, shocked, possessed and amused as well. The story was extreme and shocking as the reality. In fact, much more than whatever medias have showed. The her own words were simply powerful.
It is not easy to write a review. But I must say "the book is highly recommended"!

Brave & Thought Provoking
From a young girl who's maturity surpassed her age who survived a horrendous attack, to a woman who would not be silenced. A riveting story. A must.
